  1. The Rosette Nebula (NGC 2237) is a vast star-forming region about 5,000 light-years away in Monoceros.
    Glowing hydrogen gas is sculpted by radiation from young stars, while dark dust marks where future stars may still form.

    Captured where astronomy meets fine art. 🌌

  3. 📸 The Rosette Nebula from DECam
    A cosmic bloom in Monoceros. This glowing nebula spans 100 light-years and cradles young stars in its heart. Captured in vivid detail by DECam in Chile.

  4. Last night was beautiful and clear, with almost no moon, so we set our Dwarf3s up on the roof to catch some photons.

    And up came a wind. Now my 3d printed roof mounts are good, but they do have a tiny bit of flex in them, and this showed. So I am now printing a revision to counter that flex. We'll see how it goes.

    Despite the wind, I was still able to get quite a pretty shot of NGC2237 - The Rosette Nebula, and the various associated clusters.

    The latest beta firmware updates to the Dwarf3 have added some interesting additional features - a machine-learning based noise reduction tool, and sub-frame dithering to improve image quality. The end result in suburbia still needs a little post-processing, but I am rather pleased with this shot - especially as it represents less than 15 minutes of exposure!

    25x30s@gain80, Ha/OIII filter (inbuilt), and post processing the Snapseed and Google Photos.
